Get another master switch from a donor SC, wire the 2nd driver door switch to your passenger window control.... just a guess.

Really? Im surprised this hasn't been figured out before, this is my only pet peeve of Lexus, besides the gs300 which is the only sedan/car made by lexus besides I would guess the LS400 and the new cars that I have seen with full auto roll down windows. In my old IS300 this was so annoying. But I can't believe especially with the scX00's, being coupes as they are, that they don't at least have both auto on the drivers side.

My passenger side window on my 92 sc300 has auto up function, but only because the switch sticks in the up position. :/ also my drivers side does not go auto up or down any possible solutions?

I'd also love a auto-up function. I could swear I saw that being present on '99 LS400's but I could be wrong. Just a guess but at the time it may have been thought that auto-up could have been a safety issue if there had been no mechanism to detect a hand in the way and stop the motor for safety reasons. I know some modern cars have this feature.

i installed this on an evo.. one touch auto up and auto down for both sides and you can also wire it to the keyless so when you lock the car it will roll both windows UP

This may end up becoming my next purchase. Thanks for the link! You don't happen to know anyone who has uploaded this on the SC's?

I've installed this on my SC and it works well. I have one touch up and down on both sides now. If you also have an aftermarket alarm, you can wire it in so that the windows roll up when you arm the car.

Dosnt need to be aftermarket alarm I have put one on an sc and works great there is a modul for the sunroof as well where everything will close when locked/armed. Um this module also does a vent feature if u have aftermarket alarm and you hook that to the aux output and it rolls the windows down 2 inches. Pretty cool.

Oh? Care to share where you wire the trigger wire so that it rolls the windows up with just the oem remote?

That is one thing I have never got about the Lexus cars. My BMW has auto up and auto down on all four windows. I get in the SC and I am like "Ugh......hold switch to have window go up!!! Grrrr......." I guess I am jus getting lazy! lol
